Wireless Phone Safety Tips

Your Motorola M900 Bag Phone gives you the powerful ability to communicate
almost anywhere, anytime, wherever wireless phone service is available and
safety conditions allow. But an important responsibility accompanies the benefits
of wireless phones, one that every user must uphold while using them.
If you find it necessary to use your M900 Bag Phone while behind the wheel of a
car, practice good common sense and remember the following tips:
1. Get to know your Motorola M900 Bag Phone and its features such as
speed dial and redial. If available, these features help you to place your
call without taking your attention off the road.
2. Let the person you are speaking with know you are driving; if
necessary, suspend the call in heavy traffic or hazardous weather
conditions. Rain, sleet, snow, ice, and even heavy traffic can be
hazardous.
3. If you receive an incoming call at an inconvenient time do not take
notes or look up phone numbers while driving. Jotting down a "to do"
list or going through your address book takes attention away from your
primary responsibility - driving safely.
4. Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls when you
are not moving or before pulling into traffic. Try to plan calls when your
car will be stationary. If you need to make a call while moving, dial only a
few numbers, check the road and your mirrors, then continue.
5. Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may distract
your attention. Make people you are talking with aware you are driving
and suspend conversations which have the potential to divert your
attention away from the road.
6. Use your M900 Bag Phone to call for help. Dial the appropriate
emergency number in the case of fire, traffic accident or medical
emergency.*
7. Use your M900 Bag Phone to help others in emergencies. If you see
an auto accident, crime in progress or other serious emergency where
lives are in danger, call the emergency number, as you would want others
to do for you.*
